Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a rolling mill for performing rolling of a electrical steel strip, a high-tensile steel strip, a mild steel strip, or the like, the rolling mill equipped with a work roll shift function to shift work rolls tapered at one ends in roll axial directions, thereby controlling edge drop of a material to be rolled, or controlling a strip shape.
  • the taper shoulder positions of the tapered portions of the work rolls cannot be caused to coincide with the vicinities of the insides of correct strip widthwise ends or the vicinities of the outsides of correct strip widthwise ends,.
  • the work rolls are set with a deviation corresponding to the amount of strip meandering, leading to a problem that such improvement of yield due to reduction in edge drop or improvement of production efficiency due to realization of stable rolling as described above cannot sufficiently be achieved.
  • Patent Literature 2 discloses a technique to obtain a positional difference between an actual position of the material to be rolled and a proper position thereof relative to the rolling mill on the basis of detection results of a strip end detector and a shift amount detector for a roll shift device, and adjust the respective sizes of right and left gaps of the work rolls according to the positional difference, thereby correcting a widthwise position of the material to be rolled, that is, correcting meandering of the strip.
  • an object of the present invention is to provide a rolling mill equipped with a work roll shift function that can improve yield and realize stable rolling with a simple means, and that can roll even a meandering metal strip into an operation side-drive side symmetrical shape.
  • a rolling mill equipped with a work roll shift function for solving the above problems is a rolling mill equipped with a work roll shift function, being a six-high rolling mill including a pair of upper and lower work rolls for rolling a metal strip, a pair of upper and lower intermediate rolls supporting the work rolls, and a pair of upper and lower back-up rolls supporting the intermediate rolls, or being a four-high rolling mill including a pair of upper and lower work rolls for rolling a metal strip and a pair of upper and lower back-up rolls supporting the work rolls, wherein:
  • the rolling mill equipped with a work roll shift function is characterized in that the pair of upper and lower intermediate rolls of the six-high rolling mill are provided with tapered portions in upper and lower positions in point symmetry, and intermediate roll shift devices are also provided for shifting the pair of upper and lower intermediate rolls in roll axial directions; and the control means performs shift control of the intermediate roll shift devices respectively for the upper side and the lower side so as to cause taper start positions of the tapered portions of the pair of upper and lower intermediate rolls to coincide with the vicinities of the outsides of the operation-side and drive side strip widthwise ends detected by the strip widthwise end position detector.
  • the rolling mill equipped with a work roll shift function is characterized in that the pair of upper and lower intermediate rolls of the six-high rolling mill are also provided with tapered portions in upper and lower positions in point symmetry, and intermediate roll shift devices are provided for shifting the pair of upper and lower intermediate rolls in roll axial directions, and shift control of the intermediate roll shift devices is performed so as to perform operation side-drive side asymmetrical shift control of the pair of upper and lower intermediate rolls to correct asymmetry of a strip shape.
  • a rolling mill equipped with a work roll shift function is a rolling mill including a pair of upper and lower work rolls for rolling a metal strip, a pair of upper and lower intermediate rolls supporting the work rolls, and a pair of upper and lower back-up rolls supporting the intermediate rolls, wherein:
  • the rolling mill equipped with a work roll shift function is characterized in that the work rolls of the four-high rolling mill are provided with independent roll bending devices on the operation side and on the drive side, and roll bending forces on the operation side and on the drive side are changed so as to correct asymmetry of a strip shape.
  • the rolling mill equipped with a work roll shift function is characterized in that the work rolls and/or the intermediate rolls of the six-high rolling mill are provided with independent roll bending devices on the operation side and on the drive side, and roll bending forces on the operation side and on the drive side are changed so as to correct asymmetry of a strip shape.
  • the strip widthwise end position detector is provided for detecting actual strip widthwise end positions, and the taper start positions of the pair of upper and lower work rolls are caused to coincide with the vicinities of the insides of the actual strip widthwise ends detected by the strip widthwise end position detector independently for the upper side and the lower side. Therefore, the amount of edge drop, which is a reduction in the strip thicknesses of the strip widthwise ends, can be more effectively reduced. As a result, the amount of edge trimming in the following process is reduced, and the yield is improved.
  • the taper start positions of the pair of upper and lower work rolls are caused to coincide with the vicinities of the outsides of the actual strip widthwise ends detected by the strip widthwise end position detector. Therefore, harmful contact line pressure from the outside of the strip width to the work rolls from the support rolls is reduced, so that shape stability (small shape variation relative to load variation) is significantly improved, and stable rolling becomes possible.
  • this meandering of the metal strip causes the shape of the metal strip to be asymmetrical on the operation side and on the drive side.
  • the taper start positions of the pair of upper and lower intermediate rolls are caused to coincide with the vicinities of the outsides of the strip widthwise ends
  • the taper start positions of the pair of upper and lower work rolls are caused to coincide with the vicinities of the insides of the strip widthwise ends respectively for the upper side and the lower side, such that the thicknesses of the strip widthwise ends on an operation side and on a drive side measured by the strip widthwise end thickness meter become predetermined thicknesses. Therefore, the metal strip can be rolled to have an operation side-drive side symmetrical shape, so that stable rolling can be realized.
